Yesterday, I started on making a last minute Christmas gift – a wheelchair capelet for my aunt – and ended up finishing it at about 3:30 in the morning. So I slept in a bit.

The cats did not appreciate my bringing their food out, later than usual! :-D

When I came outside, there were cats running, jumping and scrambling from all directions. Then they got confused, because I had to do something else first. Not only did I come out of a different door, but I didn’t go straight to the food! How dare I!

There is a cat missing in the above photo; Rosencrantz or Guildenstern ran in as I came over, then hid when I got to the door.

I’m glad that floor is concrete. We’re going to have to empty the room out in the spring and scrub it down again. Cat puke is a little more challenging to clean up when it’s frozen. :-D

We didn’t see these guys over the summer, but they are back now. :-)

I wanted to share some images from a few days ago, when a fog rolled in, covering much of the prairies.

20181212.frost — Part of our spruce grove.

It resulted in some incredibly beautiful frost.

On the way home from town, my daughter tried to get some photos out the window. At one point, I was able to come to a near stop for a while, as she took photos of an old church. Which is when we spotted this guy. He was right in front of us, then dashed off towards the church, where my daughter managed to take a few pictures.
